My name is Pancake!

Hi there! I’m Pancake, a boy born around 10/2 with a big personality packed into my tiny 3-pound body. My mom is only 10 pounds, so I’ll probably stay pretty small too - the perfect size for your lap… which is great, because that’s my favorite place to be.

When I’m not curled up in a warm cuddle puddle, I’m bouncing around like a happy little Chihuahua-mix firecracker. I zoom, I play, I explore, then I flop over for another nap. It’s a good system.

I sleep quietly in my crate at night like a very good boy. I’m still learning about potty training, but I promise I’m trying! I love other dogs, and I’m super gentle and wiggly with kids - my foster home has both, and I think they’re wonderful.

If you’re looking for a tiny buddy with a huge heart (and excellent snuggle skills), I’d love to meet you!
I will do best in homes with kids 8 and older and a family home much of the day to help me grow into a happy and trained adult!

If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/adopt/dog-adoption-application  . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will send to the foster family to set up a meet!

The adoption fee of $600 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed!

*please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.
